Today I Drive: 1958 Plymouth Savoy [Episode 5]

This car was the most impressive car that came out of Detroit in 1958. Over 50 years later, it still has plenty of style and character.

[@currier207]

I love the echo that buddy's 'rave on' had. It makes me feel like this car comes from a far gone age, gives it depth.

[@PersnicketyRed]

This made me smile....missing the Belvedere that my Daddy got me years ago ❤️

[@speedlover7362]

What happened to it

[@PersnicketyRed]

speed lover I was storing it at my parents house...when my Dad passed away, my Mom moved, and my husband and I had no place to store her. 😢

[@justsumguy2u]

I like the fact that you didn't repaint it......I like the patina. It's a survivor and a driver, not a showpiece.

[@isaacsrandomvideos667]

justsomeguytoyou yeah!

[@roaenokesyzlak7828]

the patina MAKES it a showpiece, wachumean? xD Joking aside, i know what you mean.

[@billhershkowitz5759]

I find it interesting that before the movie Christine came out, most people saw the 58 Plymouth as a rusty, gas-hogging dinosaur with big fins the creeped along local roads. Today they are all considered desirable classics, especially the 2 door models! My uncle had a yellow 58 Suburban (base model) wagon. I think it had the flathead 6 and for sure it had a manual transmission on the column. A real clunker but one day in the parking lot of our favorite burger joint, he accidently got the passengers' door caught up against a brand new cherry red 64 Olds Cutlass hardtop. In one light motion the old Plymouth ripped the Oldmobile's door off its hinges! We all laughed at the cheap, tinny GM A body's door compared to the vault-like door of the Suburban!

[@thischanneldied4686]

I see the 58 Plymouth as a beautiful car. My mom said something about them being an ugly car and that they were a poor man's car. I see the car a totally different way.

[@jasongc8v]

Ugly?Christine nonono

[@isaacsrandomvideos667]

t h I s c h a n n e l d I e d poor mans car? What a joke

[@garyquail2347]

@@isaacsrandomvideos667 the guy is wrong about the poor man's car actually the Savoy was a car that was budgeted to the average working man whereas the fury was more of a little man's car and the Suburban Station Wagon was the family man's car and if you're very fortunate enough and had a little bit more money you could have gotten yourself a Fury Sport convertible..

[@ferlenarab]

I always liked the '57 better, but I had a '56, the '58 4 lights I did not care for!

The town and music makes this amazing!

That intro is perfect. The music the car the town.

[@leemartin2990]

Great car, great music. Refreshing to see a guy under 70 driving one of these beautiful big-fin cars.

[@Rare92Mustang]

Great video. Love the beginning. So cool. I am 23 and I have a 57 Desoto and a 1961 Imperial. Good to see more young guys into these classics!!!

[@michaelvaus]

still have them now?

[@drakecoffelt6435]

1:32 I love the way it leans as he guns it through the dirt

[@MrBill34786]

At around 2:08 it looks like a rusty bent up version of Christine creeping up from behind. With the lighting and rusty faded paint with the glow of the headlights make it look like something from hell. What a truly gorgeous car. Chrysler Corp. by far made the best looking cars in the late 1950s beating out the Chevy Bel Airs and Ford T-Birds.

[@DerAdventurer]

Absolutely beautiful! Very well done. The whole environment and the music! GOD! #loveit Thank you very much for sharing this with us. I hope the Savoy still goes for many years!

[@riejurv50]

So true this car was the most impressive one back in 57 and also 58, i've recently bought one, as a classic car lover this is no doubt a real beauty.

[@kjpphotography4764]

Dude love your '58 and great music by Buddy!

[@roscoefoofoo]

FANTASTIC. Goosebumps from the soul!

[@DylanMcCoolVideo]

Thank you very much!

[@oldthompson4537]

One of the prettiest cars ever.

[@retroolschool]

Man really beautifully filmed!

[@DylanMcCoolVideo]

+retroolschool Thank you!

[@sethguest781]

The hardest '50s Mopar to find parts for, given how slim the aftermarket is for these, the folks who restore (especially if they're willing to deal with those dodgy TorqueFlite transmissions) and drive them are real heroes in their own right.

[@DeLorean4]

Very well-produced video. You capture the car perfectly.

[@DylanMcCoolVideo]

Thanks I'm glad you liked it.

Any Video with a Buddy Holly Song and. '58 Plymouth will make my Day any time.

On 11 Feb 2023 saw special screeening of Christine (40th anniversary) in South Australia. Quite a few US classic cars, including 3 '58 Plymouths. Oh and we had a few Aussie classics there too. 😉 Seeing this today made me happy.

[@MsEscalade007]

Please make more videos with this car it's so beautiful and your filming skills are amazing.

[@gpholtz]

Excellent photography, like a movie!!!

[@atomicghost775]

This video introduced me both to old cars and buddy holly back in hs. Thank you

Brilliant work mate, you got the whole mood conveyed.

More movies with Classic cars should be made today to make them more famous and get people into restoring the ones abandoned

[@Mr_Jingle]

Love that song Buddy holy was amazing

[@UberGewei1]

This is like the 100th I've watched it. Love this video.

Thank you that really means a lot!

[@rickmalarky9878]

Great video!~ I love that car. The tunes were cool, and seemed appropriate to car!. Nice artistic touch! Great camera work. The ride along and shots down the car, close up of dash and shifting gave it a "Cinema" feel.

[@DylanMcCoolVideo]

+Rick Malarky Thanks that was my goal! I'm glad you could see it too.

[@SH3RIFF187]

Well edited video. Not what I was expecting. Great work and amazing car.

[@fonhollohan2908]

Glad you didn't paint this old baby the patina suites it just fine. My favorite Plymouth was the 59 fury, she was one of my favorite cars of all time. I even liked it better than the 57 Chevy. My cousin was born in 57 and he own two of them, he had a hard top and a convertible, he was an aircraft mechanic and both of his cars were mint. He lived in Michigan and loved his classics.

[@ronaldmiller2740]

VERY COOOOL!!!! GREAT!!!!

[@kaa522]

51 years ago while I was in High School I bought a 58 Plymouth Belvedere 4 dr with the 318 engine and 2 speed Powerflite transmission also Chryslers full time power steering. I paid $100.00 for the car and drove it daily for a couple of years. Finally the rust was taking over the body and I sold it. Never had a problem with the power train. Sometimes I think late 50s cars came pre-rusted from the factory...

[@dressshoeguy]

Cool video at first I thought Christine but she was a Fury still love this car

What town was this? It looks totally 1950's.

Nice vid, Really has the feel of the old days (50's 60's) The "Savoy" would have been in better shape had it really been from that time .
